Improv performers look like creative geniuses, coming up with brilliant comedy on the spur of the moment. But they rely on some simple rules and techniques - ones which anyone can learn, and which can help us offstage to think creatively, collaborate with others and communicate with impact.

Improvise! will show you how to handle whatever comes your way at work - from giving confident presentations and handling difficult conversations to coming up with great ideas and persuading others to make them happen.

Comedian and improvisation for business coach Max Dickins combines examples from the world of work with exercises from the stage to teach you how to achieve extraordinary results with what you've already got.

This book had me from page one! [...] I learned shed loads whilst simultaneously laughing out loud. -- Sherilyn Shackell, Founder and CEO of The Marketing Academy
I didn't realise how fundamental improvisation is to everyday life...until I read Max's book. -- Alice Ter-Harr, Former Deliveroo EU Marketing Lead
Unlock those barriers you didn't realise were holding you back in your work life with practical and engaging know-how from the world of improv. You owe it to yourself and others to rediscover the curiosity and play already inside you. -- Kate Diver, Head of People Operations, Transferwise
